The Art Of Collapsing Lyrics - Keepsake

Where we take separate breaths 

And memories of your perfume 

Are forgotten 

I stand choking on 

The things you once said 

The days once held close to my heart 

And only one image 

Remains 

Short lived and reminiscent 

Of your face 

That pathetic angel 

Drowning herself in your tears 

Now begins her descent from our skies 

But her wings were weak from the start 

The first of our last good-byes 

And I think to myself 

Our lips would fit together so well 

The final step in perfecting 

The art of Collapsing 

When your laughter is ignored 

And that last painful smile 

Fades away 

Where we take separate breaths 

And memories of your perfume 

Are forgotten 

I stand choking on 

The things you once said 

The days once held close to my heart 

I fall choking on the lies you once said 

And I'll never look at you 

Through the same 

Eyes again
